Demolition Complete For 50-Story Skyscraper At 45-03 23rd Street In Hunters Point, Queens

Demolition is complete at 45-03 23rd Street, the site of a 544-foot-tall mixed-use skyscraper in Hunters Point, Queens. Designed by Fogarty Finger and developed by Charney Companies and Tavros Capital under the Court Square 45th Avenue LLC, the 50-story structure will yield a mix of condominiums, commercial space, and communal space. The site is located along 23rd Street between Jackson Avenue and 45th Avenue, directly to the east of the elevated subway tracks of the 7 train.

Recent photos show the low-rise buildings that stood on the plot fully demolished. The site looks to be ready for excavation and subsequent construction of the new skyscraper.

The site is currently lined with green construction boards. Peeking through the openings reveals leftover bricks and other various masonry blocks scattered across the land. It shouldn’t be long before piling machines and excavators arrive to begin digging and strengthening the land for the skyscraper.

The following photos show the low-rise structures that lined the block before demolition.

The main rendering depicts a relatively tall superstructure with a light-colored envelope and a rectangular grid of white terracotta panels and subtle bronze details between the vertical strips of floor-to-ceiling glass. 45-03 23rd Street’s 544-foot-tall height will make a noticeable presence among other taller skyscrapers nearby such as the 778-foot-tall Skyline Tower to the north and the 673-foot-tall One Court Square to the east.

Overall, the complex is planned to span 350,844 square feet, with 194,423 square feet designated for residential use, 100,000 square feet for commercial tenants, and 3,388 square feet for community facilities. A total of 285 condominium units, two penthouse floors, Class A office space, retail space, a cellar, a mezzanine, and a 25-foot-long rear yard would fit within the parameters of the structure. Amenities include a 24/7 doorman, a fitness center, resident lounges, and bicycle storage. The closest subways are the E, M, G, and 7 trains at the Court Square station.

45-03 23rd Street is stated to be completed by April 2023, as noted on the construction board.

Nice, this one is beautiful.

Yeah, if they stick with terra cotta and bronze, and not value engineer it with pre-cast concrete, this will be a really attractive building.

JV Plans 55-Story Mixed-Use Tower in Long Island City

August 08, 2022 at 06:42 AM

Tavros Capital and Charney Companies have closed on the acquisition for $68.3M of a Jackson Avenue development site in Long Island City where the partners are planning to build a 55-story mixed-used tower with up to 600 apartments and 90K of retail and offices.

The partners are combining the property, located at 24-19 Jackson Avenue, with a neighboring parcel that they own at 45-03 23rd Street to create a site large enough for the high-rise, which will become the one of the tallest residential towers in Queens.

Tavros, Charney plan 55-story rental on long-stalled site

A Long Island City site where a developer once envisioned Queens’ largest hotel could soon give rise to one of the borough’s tallest apartment towers instead.

Tavros Capital and Charney Companies closed on the long-stalled development site at 24-19 Jackson Avenue for $68.3 million, records show.
Together with a neighboring parcel owned by Tavros and Charney at 45-03 23rd Street, the property forms a triangular assemblage in the neighborhood’s Court Square area, where the joint venture plans a 55-story mixed-use tower with 600 apartments and 90,000 square feet of retail and offices, a Tavros representative told The Real Deal.


Seller Toyoko Inn, a Japanese hotel operator, spent $26 million cobbling together the assemblage between 2007 and 2014, eventually filing plans for a 50-story, 1,200-key hotel, which would have been its first in the U.S. and the largest in the outer boroughs.

But the hotel project never got off the ground, and after the City Council passed a measure last December requiring developers to obtain special permits before constructing new hotels, Toyoko Inn put the property on the market in January, hoping to get around $60 million for it.

A CBRE team led by Dan Kaplan represented the Toyoko Inn in the sale to Tavros and Charney, which went into contract in May. Work on the joint venture’s apartment tower has already begun: The project qualified for the 421a tax abatement because foundation work was done before the tax break lapsed in June, the developers said.
